Hi! My name is Jeremy. I'm from Pennsylvania, but I live and teach English in Costa Rica. My favorite color is orange! I like going out and being active, but i also know how to appreciate quite alone time. If I'm in nature, I'm happy. If I'm in a big city, I'm happy. If I'm in a park in the city, I'm ecstatic. In October and November, I will be traveling to the US by land and I would love your help in getting there!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that we are all people and thatour communities should be global. The way to make a global community is through traveling and meeting new people and sharing our cultures, perspectives, and homes with them

Interests

I like meeting new people and seeing the world through their eyes. Every person has a different view--and thank god! Life would be so boring otherwise!

• writing
• cheese
• beer

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Donnie Darko was my favorite movie in high school, and I haven't found one that I like better yet.
But I also like anything from High School Musical to Love, Actually.

Books: Harry Potter (I can't help it. Sorry, not sorry..) I also like almost every book I can get my hands on. Middlesex, the Little Prince, Unica mirando al mar.
Isabel Allende, Salman Rushdie, Haruki Murakami and Chuck Palahniuk are some of my favorite authors

Music: Country, folk, and Indie/Alternative are my favorites. If it has a banjo or an upright bass, I'm in!
